The sculptural stool combines modern craftsmanship with its bent plywood construction, accented by rich palisander lacquer finish. Its mirrored dual-element design provides stable seating, while the internal brass support bar adds structural integrity. The organic curves suit contemporary spaces, and the precision screw assembly ensures lasting durability.
Designed by Sori Yanagi, the Butterfly develops contemporary techniques of shaping plywood first pioneered by mid-century designers Charles & Ray Eames.This sculptural stool is made of two simple elements that mirror each other's shape to create a unique platform.Made from bent plywood that is lacquered in either light maple or rich palisander, the Butterfly has been formed into a unique series of swoops and flicks that hint towards the organic style of Japanese design.To ensure a solid structure, a supporting brass bar is fitted inside the base while two small screws underneath the seat keep the top locked tightly together.
